Older

Carmela and I talked about aging in the Homemaker's Club-she's so young-trying to have another child-I'm near elderhood myself-yikes! I wonder what the future of our hood is, I myself and working to become a bit more intergrated with this side of the hood. Thankfully Carmela didn't refuse to speak with me after the financial fiasco following mother's death. It's been humbling moving to the other side of the hood into a home not much bigger than the bedroom wing of our home. *sigh*

No College!

Dad and mom just told us that they can't afford to send us to college!!! Ginger was ok with the news-she just wants to get marrried and have babies anyway. Ugh, it's disgusting listening to her talk at night while I'm trying to sleep. Maybe I could be a tour guide-I read about that in Simmerville-I could do the same thing. O! Tobi asked me out-like a date. What!?! When did that happen!

Almost

I'm almost out of here! Thank goodness! I wonder if I can still appear on Pahala Shore or should I move on to something more.

My sisters are annoying sometimes-thank goodness they look up to me.

Hurts My Pride

I looked over the finances and determined that we could not afford to send the girls to university. I feel like such a failure-the girls were not concerned, apparently none of them had big plans on going-Hazel Starr has made it clear that she's moving as soon as possible to persue her acting career-Ginger wants to be a housewife and Marilyn...well, Marilyn wants to be a boy.

It's Ok

It's ok that I can not go to college. I didn't plan on it anyway, now I can learn more skills from mom about keeping the house. I'm a good cook and she said that she would start allowing me to cook some meals, I want to be a better cleaner-learn all the tricks to getting the grime out of the tub and making a proper bed. Grex said that he would like to go swimming with me, I would need to find a nice swimsuit. He's very cute.
